Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-110:
-----------------------------------
Folly also uses two for large size arrays
https://github.com/facebook/folly/blob/master/folly/FBVector.h As this aligns
nicely with page sizes in OSes (normal and huge pages) "2x" seems like a good
strategy now.
> [C++] Decide on optimal growth factor when appending to buffers/arrays

> There is some evidence that powers of 2 might not be optimal (the facebook
> folly library suggests this in there explanation of why they have there own
> vector type). They use 1.5 (as do other implementations that don't use two).
